All This I Should Have Known

If only I'd tried a little harder

To reach this goal

To reach your soul

If only we'd been a little closer

If only we'd pulled together

I'll try to leave behind

This sense of wasted time

So much promise we denied

If only I'd let go of my pride

Cast my doubts and fears aside

All this I should have known

All this I should have known

Hold me one more time

Hold me while we dance together

Hold me now our love has gone

We tried to talk to no avail

We knew inside that this had failed

With you, I could never say what lay within my heart

With you, there was always something keeping us apart

With you, I was never really sure

Hold me one more time

Hold me while we dance together

Hold me now our love has gone

We tried to talk to no avail

We knew inside that this had failed

All this I should have known

All this I should have known
